Liverpool's most noted new band of the last year, Clean Cut Kid, have unveiled a unique rework of Jamie xx's 'Loud Places', which you can hear below, and which is also available for free download.
Taking inspiration from artists such as Fleetwood Mac, Vampire Weekend and Haim, Clean Cut Kid channel a lifetime of hard-earned experiences into their instantly-infectious style of (say the band) "fuzzy pop ballads, washed in Mersey water" - a method which is applied to impressive effect on their cover of 'Loud Places'.
A busy summer ahead for tge quartet, with a new single arriving shortly, and a raft of festival dates through to autumn (see below).
